Some intrepid reporter needs to go to Honolulu, find the clerk that issued the "Certification of Live Birth" and ask to see the documents it was based on.

Hawaii does not permit release of birth certificates without the person's permission, and Obama has repeatedly refused to give his permission.

A questions comes to my mind.

Does a person have to give his permission to release his "Certification of Live Birth"? If so, then why did Obama give permission to release that document and not a birth certificate.

Top marks, zert!!!

Either this "document" is a total fabrication, or it is based upon something the Obamoids, and Obama himself, chose to have released. If the latter, it would seem that it is not completely authentic, for some unknown (at this time) reason or another.

Because a birth certificate has additional information, such as whether or not his parents were married (probably not), his religion (Muslim) and his birth name (probably Barry).
